tionally does great injustice to, the
defeated candidates on the Republi
can ticket in this county. It is well
known that kr. laroarz's defeat was
compassed through the influence of
all the great corporations doieg bus
mess in the district—thousands of
dollars having been contributed'for
that — purpose : %Lae the employes
were given to nederstand that it
would not be well for them to vote
for Mr. LAPORTE.
In the case of Sete% his vote
outside of the townships is
larger than for the Re* F ublican State
ticket The chavg, tint he has never
shown much zeal fur the party, does
not come with a! very good grace
from the Ga:etle la Seen has
been ,one of the' truest and most
faithful members of the party, ever
since its organic ;tion ; 3'.(1 1 126 fact
that he had beta and Re
corder for . three years, . n ors than
twenty ytara since, when •he office
was worth but little, ,was a poor ex
cuse fur Republicans to cat him. Mr.;
SCOTT was Collector of Internal Rev
• entie fur mine years,—a position in
which he won for himself the confi
dence and high regard of- the Treas
ury Department; and all whith whom
he had business transactions. But
had he been in office all his days, we
are unable to see how that fact would
justify the editor of the Gazette, who
professes to be a Republican, attached
to the j principles of the party, in
Toting for a man for the legislature
who will aid in the election to the
S. Senate Of - a bitter and anconaPro
mising enemy of that party. In point
of moral character - and personal
worth, Mr. Scorr will not suffer by a
comparison with Mr. ROCKWELL or
any other man in the county.. His
defeat is chargeable to the fact that
he was known to be opposed to any
division of the county, while it was
believefi that his opponent , was favor
able to division, and -the Orzeite
should have had the independerice to
do him justice in the matter— __
In regard to Mr. KINNEY, the Ga
zette again blunders when it sayS:
"In this section Mr. K. was "spot
ted," because of a foolish and offi
cious action of his in the countytcon
vention a year ago, aimed at the
Troy court. It was intended as an
insult to this place, made for the
purpose of currying favor with the
middlemen and east ; but it failed,
and Mr. Kinnel can credit his defeat
as much to the.: as to anything else."
Ip the, first -place" Mr. K. was not
so 'badly cuttin " this section." In
Troy township he received as many
votes as Judge Pisor, and in the
borough he was only 15 votes Elliott
In the , second place, we should be
pleas- to have the Gazette- . point - to
the " officious action". of Mr. K.
touching the interests of Troy, a year
figq.. In the convention referred to
Capt. CARSOCHAII, of Troy, was chair
.man of the committee on resolutions,
and accepted the only resolution'of
fered by Mr. 11. as part of the com

mittee's report. -' -
The flimsy reasons given by the
GaMte for the defeat of these gentle
naen, seems to us very much like an
effort of the` editor to quiet his own
con'sciencefor deserting his colors in
an hour of peril. We haVe no obkc
tion le every man voting just as he
pleases, but it is far more honorable
to be frank and open.: mot to profess
one thing and by your vote declare
for the very opposite.

Tll* VICE-Pagsnozwrs MEWL
At this time when mAny good re
publicans entertain misgiving as to
the ultimate result to the ocrantry of
our defeat 'ibis fall, the views of
prominent anti wise men, will be read
with interest and aid in the forma
tion of a correct judgaleot as to the
future of politic,' movements. The
following Views expressed by Vice;
President Wnsos,contain much truth
and wisdom, and should be generally
read.:
A reporter of the New 'York /11 7
bone has had a talk with Vice '
dent Wilson, and obtained from him
some expression of opinion upon the
results of the late elections. Among
other things the Vice President said:
'The results of the elections shows
the necessity of a liberal and mag
nanimous policy. It shows that Re
publican leaders most be statesmen.
The need of the time is statesman
ship. With a proper policy and.with
the best men of the party at the
front,' think, said Mr. Wilson, that
the Republicans can in two years
carry every one of the, old free States
and some of the old slave States. It
is probable that the Republican party
will be strengthened and helped by the
policy which the Democrats will pur
sue after their accession to power.
The history of the Demetcratic party
for the last twenty years has been a
series of blenders: He said that he
did not consider that the result of
the elections indicated a thorough or
permanent revolution in public ()pin
ion, or that this result foreshadowed
the conclusion of the next Presiden
tial campaign. But the Republican
party, to retain what it has lost,he
said, must adopt a wise, liberal, and
high-toned policy; must crowd its
ranks with all the worthy elements it
can secure, and must be careful not
to alienate any good men from the
party. Above all, it must put the
best men forward. That is the only
policy for a party to pursue ; in' that
way, alone can it be , kept at a high
standard, and gain and retain suc
cess. Earnest efforts should be made
to win back to the party the good
men who had left it." The Vice
President then, with deep feeling and
most decided emplWais, asserted his
own position upon the third term
question in the following words :
"For my part I would oppose with
all my strength the election' of any
man to a third term were he the best
who ever lived in this country, except
in the face of a peril to the . country.
so great and threatening that I would
be willing to advocate to avert it a
plain and direct violation of the Con
stitution—a violation that should be
acknowledged and condoned. Only
if - there were no other means to save
the country should any man be cho
sen a third term."
Another reason for the opposition
to the third-term proposition, said
Mr. Wilson, is the marked dissatis
faction with men who have come to
power or been appointed to office in
various parts of- the country. The
advocacy of a third term camefrom
the bosoms of the men of whom the
people complain with the intention of
perpetuating their power. The idea
' was opposed to the prejudices—and
the jest convictions, too—the wishes,
feelings, and interests of the great
mass of the people, and it is no won
der that they have thoroughly put it
down. These elections have settled
the third-term` question for the next
hundred years.
Another cause for the desire of
change which found vent on the 3d of
November was the opposition of the
people to certain men who have been
prominent in the party, and to certain
office-holders. I hope that last Tnes
day's work will have the effect of
purifying and- strengthening the
party, and lead it to put its beat men
in the place of some who have been
conspicuous in it. The state of things
in the South, also, has borne hard
upon the party, and has influenced
'the election, but I consider that the
coarse of the Republican party to
ward the -Southern States generally
has been baied on Correct principles.
The men who came'into power in the
South at the time of Andy 'Johnson
made a system of laws to oppress
the blacks and deprive them of their
rights, which made their condition
worse than slavery itself. - These laws
were terrible in their cold-blooded
brutality, and when laid fully before
the people, as I shall show them in a
chapter of my book, they will shock
the world. The Republican party
established equal rights in the South,
and any men who attempt to grind
down the blacks and take away their
rights, must learn that they . will be
crushed and buried out of sight:
Equal rights mast be maintained.
the South, but I believe in as gener
ous a \ policy as possible, and favor
the restoration of the privileges of
the small number of Southerners
who are still disfranchised. There
are probably not more than one hun
dred and fifty in all now. The Re
publican,party has been _stigmatized
for the misdeeds'of office -holders and
legislators in the Southern States. I
do not see why this party, because it
established equal right,t should be
held responsible for the crimes of
every negro, cr of every carpet bag
der and scalawag in the South, any
more than the National Democratic
put" should be held responsible for
the way in which the city government
of New Ycirk was carried on in the
time of Tweed.
THE New York Times contains the
following indication of what that
city has to expect from the beneficent
policy of the "tome-rule" Reform
party which has just stepped into
power :
" We have now received, within ten
days of the election, a pretty fair in
dication as to -what sort of article
Democratic Reform is likely to turn
out. In the first place, the Demo
crats issued ballots from their booths
on election day canceling the most
important and valuable of the con
stitutional amendments. That was
Reform -number one. In the next
place, gr. Tilden's organ - announced
'that it would be the duty of the
party" to "revise," i.e., reverse,
thelegislation of Congress during
the last ten years in reference to war
and Southern questions. Reform
number two. In the third place,
Boss Kelly takes the entire adminis
tration of justice into his own hands,
goes down to police stations and or
ders -the Captains to do his bidding,
packs a jury, compels a Coroner to
violate the first principles of law, and
secures the releasa.of his " chum,"
Croker, who is charged with commit.
ting a murder. That is reform num
ber three. A pretty good beginning
for one week." )

Druggists and ApotbeUaries having
the right to retail liquors for the parr-
pose mentioned in the itatuter are
retailers sub modo.
• The word retailer cannot be con
strued -with reference to them and
their boldness as druggists. •,
1 It is not to be inferred because the
constable in his return calls them
"retailers of liquors,". that they sold
and delivered liquorito be used as a
beverage. -
Motion to quash indictment. ;
°ANION DY =now, P. J. nov. 1.6-ru, '74.
The constable's return; upon which
this indictment is' based, is iu the
following words: "ltetailer of Izq•
um's, Dr. H. O. Porter :St Son." Is
this sufficient fo support, the hid c:
ment? The 33d see. of f i the set If
1856, requires, constables to mare r -
turn of retailers of liquors, and, in
addition, thereto, at each ; term of •he
court, t o m'ake return-on
,oath, whe!h
er, within his knowledge, there is any
place within his bailiwick kept and
maintained in 1 violation of this act."
The return is not in compliance with
the latter part of this ! aet. He does
not - say whether the acts of the de
fetidants were or were not in viola
tion of law--simply returns them as
mailers; audit is signed this is suf
ficient, because, since the passage of
the ' 4 ' local-option law," no persons
are licensed to vend, liquors in this
county, and, of necessity, if the de
iendants are retailer liquors, it is
in violation of law. This, as a gen
eral-proposition, may be true, but it
has its exceptions; for the fifth sec
tion of the act of 1856 allows drug
gists and apothecaries "to sell un•
mixed alcohol, or conipound, or sell
any admixtures of wine, alcohol: -
spirituous or brewed liquors in the
preparation of medicine, or noon the
written prescription: of a regular
practicing physician." The act of
27th of Marcli,:lB72,("local option")
prescribes " that nothing contained
in this act shall prevent the issuing
of ,licenses to druggists for the sale
of liquors for medicinal and manu
facturing purposes."
The record shows that the defend
ants were druggists and apothecaries.
As such, they had'the right to retail
liquors for the purposes mentioned
in the statute. tit is' true they had
no right to sell them "to be used as
,
a beverage ;" but, in 'the absence of
any charge that such was the fact
(except what is" implied in the word
retailer), we will not presume they
acted criminally, but the presump
tion, under such circumstances, is di•
rectly the opposite—it is always in
favor of innocence.. The word re•
tailer must be construed with refer
ence to them and their business as
druggist. They are, ex necessitate,
retailers -in one sensce; not, perhaps,
in the popular sense Of the word, but
in its exact and primary sense—that
is, one who "sells in small qUantities."
In other words, they are retailers
sub modo—have fife right to sell and
deliver liquors for the purpOses men
tioned in the acts-before quoted, and
we will not infer, because the consta
ble in his .return callti them "retailers
of liquors," that they:sold and deliv
ered liquors to be used as a beverrge.
For this is the very gist of the charge,
and the word retailer in- the return,
as-we have seen, does not show such
was the fact. -
To test it: suppose application had
been made to the court for a bench
warrant upon this return when it
was made, and it appeared to the
court that the defefendants were
druggists, the court: certainly would
have refused to grant it, for the rea
son no offence wasi charged. The
constable had returned in part what
the law required, and it was consis
tent with truth and innocence. The
indictment stands .on no higher
ground than the return. The Grand
Jury may make presentments, it is
tree, brit it must be on their own
knowledge. This indictment was on
the return, upon the evidence of nit
nesses summoned for the part of the
Commonwealth. IL the return falls,
the indictment falls.' For if we were
to hold otherwise, persons might be
indicted `
.on any statement charging
no crime—without ;an examination
before a magistrate,! or without any
presentment by the Grand Jnry.
This certainly cannot be done in the
Suite courts of Penhsylvania.
We might end the case here, bat
we are unable to see by what author
ity the District Attorney laid the
indictment against ;Henry C. Porter.
The word "Son,!' in the return, is
not necessarily Henry C. Porter, and
so far as we can see from the record,
he is named in the indictment with
oat authority, and clearly it can not
be held good as against him. But
we' think it can not be sustained
against either of the defendants, and
the indictment mist bo quashed.
Rule absolute and demurer sustained.

quashed the folloWing indictments :

Our fears mti being restated. " Call
home your troop;" is the Insolent
demand iehoated from •an over the
South, now that"' the Dem9cracy are
triumphant. The Richmond Enquirer
is especially imperatiiii in its de
maml, and its utterances sound won.
derfolly like old times. In a recent
issue of that modet Democratic sheet,
we find, sentences like the following
in an eiticliordering the , government
to withdraw the troopt stationed in
the South to protect the loyal citizens:
" We fide's', you to do this in time,
for if they are kept here until the
Ddmocracy gets a chance at them,
th4e won't be a soldier left to form a
unit for the army."
We remember jut such talk from
similar sources before thte recent war,'
and we remember, too, that this
same fire-eating element did get a
chance at the United States troops,
but there was "considerable of The
Union army left aftsr the rebel army
was wield out. The presence of such
men es GeLIP. MCDOWELL,. CtlitTEß,
FARM; Monaow, Major Mama, and
other gallant officers, we do not
sup
pose, is particularly agreeable to the
murderous Kulilnx and White
Leaguers of Louisiana, Alabama;
and other disloyal sections. The
presence of f United States troops, we
suppose, is speCially obnoxious to
the residents of most sections of the
South. It was so before the war. It
is now. Their presence interferes
with the mild-mannered amusemOnts
of the ohivalrons natives. They can•
not indulge i n the pleasant pastime
of shooting "niggers," or stringing
up a Republican now and then, or
flogging a Yankee shcool-teacher, or
making bonfires out of school houses.'
Consequently, they demand their re
moval. They made the same demand
.of Gen. GRANT during the war. The
preserice of himself and his troops
was not agreeable to the rebels. But
be did not seem to pay much heed
to their demands then, nor does he
now. We are glad to know that he
has determined that the United States
troops shall remain in the disturbed
sections of the South until peace and
quiet are restored, and the rights of
every citizen, of whatever section or
color, are secured under' the law.
FREE TRADE AND LOW WAGES
An article in the London Times
of -October 15th gives an account of
how the peasants of England live.
The starvation prices at which - .they
are compelled to labor prevents the
poor classes from enjoying even the
ocratic party of this country would
compel the working myn here to
compete with pauper labor, thus de
necessaries of life ; and yet the Dem
grading them to the level of the un
fortunate English peasantry. The
writer says :
I went into one of the houses in
this row. In all probability it was
the worse kept and in the worst re
pair. - There was hardly a scrap of
furniture in what may, by a stretch
of fancy, be called the living room.
The one bed-room up stairs was in a
wretched condition. There were two
filthy beds. One consisted of nothing
but an old chaff mattress 'on the
ground-its sole covering what looked
like a patchwork counterpane, hardly
distinguishable for dirt. A. similar
mattress still more filthy, was stretch
ed upon an old four-post bedstead,
and here, three weeks before. a girl
of about 20 bad given birth to an
illegitimate child, while her father
and two brothers slept on the floor in
the same room. Farther down 'the
hill is a court beat known as Billings
te.
'Two of these cottages into which I
went here were of the same class,
and even in worse repair, with single
bedrooms, boards gaping and hardly
able to bear a vigorous spring, roofs
not water-tight, and the concrete on
the ground floor of the living-room
worn away in many places to the
earth. A stalwart laborer and his
wife lived in one of these hovels, with
three children. The man said he
earned 10s. a week. ' Hie rent was
.18., and the wcman added that coals
now cost theni ls. 4d. a week. She
went oat to dig potatoes or to do any
other work she could get, and then
paid 2d. a day to an old woman' to
take care of the children. The
"minder" was, in fact, nursing the
baby at the time" of my visit. Here
again, near one.part of the court
common to all the houses, the stench
was abominable. Golden Hill and
Billingsgate, however, have no mo
nopoly of squalor and foul way. •
To any traveller in search of the
unpicturesque, another court,. called
Gullet, in another part of the village,
may be safely recommended. A cot
tage in one corner contains a man
and his wifs,with nine or ten children. .
The eldest girl, 15 years old, was
taking care of the household at the
time of my visit, , but the woman
came in soon afterwards. Here again
the earth showed through the con
crete in the living-room. An out
house opening from this room was
tumbling down. The stairs were
dangerous, and you had to take two
at once to avoid a loose plank. There
was one large bed-room partitioned
into two. In the first of these rooms
slept the man and his wife with the
baby. Directly overhead a large
piece of the plaster-ceiling had lately
fallen down, and if the baby had been
beneath it, as the woman said, there
would have been an end to. its little
life. The man had attempted to
cover-this hole with a bit of . old tar
paulin, but the thatch above it was
worn into holes, and in wet weather
the rain came ,through "by the
bucket."
In the next room, 'where the child
ren slept on two mattresses, large
gaps in the wall gave ventilation
enongh and to spare. You could "lie
and look attlhe stars." At times, the
woman said, when the wind was
high, it blew down anything she
could \ put to cover these gaps, and
the children might alwost as well
sleep ont, of doors. Here, also, in
wet weather, the rain streamed thro'
the thatch, "and ran between the
yawning boards into the living-room
below. Up stairs and do*h dirt
reigned supreme.' , Bach a bevel, in

swarm of-children, v,viis - enough to

'of no nip, she added, to sat the per;

to do an, repairs, and where were

she bad till lately paid 2s. sa. a week;
but, I suppose in consequence of in
creasing 'Frit_ cbedpess, the rent was
now tednesd to !s. This, however,
was not the abode of a farm laborer.
The man was' &mason's laborer, who
"allowed" his wife (this was her ex
pression) lls t a week for housekeep
ing and kept 2s. for himself. She
thought this was not a large deduc
tion, liecause out of it her husband
clothed and shod himself, so that not
Much was left, for his " pint of beer
and bit of luicca." Bat of course she
had to work too. So bad her 'eldest
daughter, and when both were away,
the house and othe young children
were left in charge of a young girl of
twelve. - •
TUE ILIRRYING PRIJCSr.
Father GERDEMAN, the Priest who
absconded:from Philadelphia recently
and married the - organist of 'his
church, publishes in the Baltimore
Sun of Saturday last the•folloWing
card explaining his eondnett
"My character for honesty having
been attacked, and the malicious
slander having been spread broadcast
over the land,. I feel it my duty to
right myself before the public. I
have left - the Catholic Church,: re
jecting all its peculiar tenets, and
will, please God, never return to it.
For this step I offer no ap 'logy, I
married my beloved wife, nee Mies
Hargaret , Whittick, of Reading, Pa.,
on the 14th instant before a--Re
formed minister'. of Jersey City, '
with
the fall consent of her parents, in
the presence of the minister's amia
ble lady and of a brother priest?'
In regard- to his financial specula
tions he says':
"I now come to the only charge I
wish to defend mrelf against—the
charge - of dishonesty. My specula
tions in railroad stocks date back to
the 6th of last July, when ai brother
priest and I jointly bought two hun
dred shares of Pennsylvania, depos
iting as a margin each $3OO. In Au
gust we lbought one thousand shares.
On this investment we made jointly
$753.33. .This profit, I am sorry to
say, we lost by investing in New York
and Erie and Reading shares.
"As to my speculations in real
estate, I bought two houses with the
full knowledge and permission of the
bishop. In one house I lived with
my assistants,- without even charging
the church a cent for rent. ,As to my
.bond speculations, invested $4OO
in the German Bank of Pottsville,
which I sold lately at a heavy die- .
count to Mr. Nagle in order to pay a .
depositor. _
"The amount I took along with
- me did not quite reach the sum of
$3,060. I, for my part; leek npon
'this sum of $3,000 as a rather small
reward for more than ten ears' la
bor; besides, over $3OO of what
actually took were` perquisites, &o.
One thousand dollars of it my sister
can have at any time, since for all
her hard work for over ten years she
has never taken, or wouldtake, , any
remuneration in money. On: the
houses there are mortgages to the
amount of $lO,OOO, which I borrowed
in order to pay claims against the
church. The interest on the: one
mortgage of $3,000 I have paid out
of my own money. The other, of
$6,400, was loanedirom the Building
Assoc.ation, and was also my money.
I did not leave the houses to my sis
ter, but gave them distinctly and ti
reservedly to Bishop Wood.
".I . publicly now repeat what I
wrote to Bishop Wood, that I will
send all my savings during life to
ward paying off the debts of the
church, not as a debt I owe to jus
tice, but as a penalty duo to folly."
Father Gr.anEmtxx says he will in
form Bishop WOOD of his wherea t
bouts as soou as he finds a settled
home. Since his departure from
Philadelphia he has traveled" openly,
registering in his own ,name. He
first went with the lady to Jersey
City, where he was married ; thence
to Chicago, where the bride and
groom remained one day at the Pal
mer, House ; thence to St. Louis,
where they took a house, intending
to reside, but for this newspaper pub
lication, which reached them, 'and
called for the card now printed. The
newly-wedded pair sailed for Europe
on Saturday, and will remain abroad
for some time. ,
EDITOR 01, THE REPORTFX---Dlr Sir :
In your issue of last week there' ap
peared an extract from the Philadel
phia Ledger, concerning the General
Convention of the Protestant Episco 7
pal Church, held. in New York, which
contained the following paragraph :
"As to the results of the convention itself: mod.
elate chum/linen on all bands appear to be well
sattalled, not only with what has been done, but
also with what has been left undone. The extremes,
however, are making loud complaints—the }lanai
lets bemuse of the rejection of Professor Seymour,
and the Evangelicals because of the non•concurrence
of the Bishops in the canon to suppress creiV.res,
COI" the &oration of the sacrament, etc.'.
It seems to me that such t# gross
mistatement of fact should not go
uncontradicta The correspondent
of the Ledger might have known—
had he taken the trouble to read the
daily reports of the convention in any
of the New York papers—that it . was
the 'Bishops who were most anxious
for some action strongly condemning
the practiced referred to, and that
their only opposition to the proposed
canon was, that it was not sufficiently
comprehensive. The canon as amend
ed, and passed by both. the House of ,
Deputies and the House of Bishops,
provides that if any - clergyman in
dulges in these practices, "or any
other acts not authorized or allowed
by the Book of Common Prayer," it
shall be the duty of the Bishop of
the Diocese in which that clergyman
officiates to investigate the matter ;
and, if, after written remonstrance,
the forbidden ceremonies are stall
persisted in, to " sue said clergyman
for a kora of his ordination vows."
I should not, Mr. Editor
_have
thought it worth while to notice the
misstatement of the article in ques
tion, except that I have the good
name of my church deeply at heart,
and it pains me more than rcan tell
to see the prejudices of peop le
strengthened and fed by such 11218.

he is the Chief Justice and 'judge of

non has !been indicted for a high
crime, and is .bound to appear for

fiant presides, end that the effect of
the, sand letter, if

affiant had prejudiced. Cannon's case,
and' is, therefore, guilty of laboring
to create a popular Iprejudice and
hatred against an indicted person, at

The only witness sworn was J. H.

was the author of the' letter in ques 7
tion, and that Chief justice McKean
did not dictate or suggest 4 single
word or sentence thErein ; nor did
Chief Justice McKean know any
'thing about the wri.ing of it.
The Herald editors' id not wish to
be sworn, whereupon Judge McKean,
addressing the Comigismoner, said:

Grand Jury and published to. the
World that the edit Ors of thit Salt

The case creates quite a sensation.
